Today I went out for only 12 miles.
I could’ve kept going but my choice of head covering and face wrap had proven to be a bad call. The orange Balaklava quickly froze over and then I had to choose between allowing my face to freeze or not breathe. Neither was too appealing. I should have worn my 45Nrth balaclava with its face shield that has breathing holes. Besides that one significant issue I was otherwise surprisingly comfortable from fingertips to toes. I wore my now discontinued Bontrager OMW boots, PI tights with a PI wind barrier pants, Giro winter jacket, some older Novara 4 finger gloves with BarMitts and my Giro MTB goggles. Good ride otherwise! It was about 6 degrees.
